General Hospital is on the move this coming Monday September 10th to its new time slot of 2PM EST & 1PMPST/CST, which is one hour earlier than fans have been used to seeing the beloved citizens of Port Charles. And now, these same citizens face life or death explosive drama at the hands of Jerry Jacks!

In the latest edition of Soap Opera Digest on newsstands now, the series EP Frank Valentini previews the drama in which we learn not everyone in town will survive the week! The episodes will include new insight into Jerry’s master plan, a shooting, and an explosion, in addition to the waterborne poison released on the town!

Valentini said he was thrilled with the outcome of the location shoot that is the backdrop for next week noting: “I’m really proud of the team and I am really proud of the actors. I just think everybody really knocked it out of the park and the audience is going to be really thrilled with the performances from the actors and the story. It’s really exciting stuff.”

Now after the jump, watch the just released extended General Hospital promo for next week ushering the show into its new time slot. Then let us know if you are excited to see the story unfold?

There are always ways to watch both nowadays, between DVR, Tivo, or whatever recording device you have, and in the case of GH, you can always catch episodes on ABC.com or YouTube, I’m not sure about DOOL since I don’t watch it. But you don’t have to pick one or the other, you can still watch both.

I cannot wait until next week. I’m so anticipating what’s going to happen to the citizens of PC. It seems that Jerry is always up to no good so it’s just a matter of who’s going to get to him first and finish him off. I love everybody but I’m more anxious to see what’s gonna happen to my beloved John McBain. He’s my all time favorite and I just hope he comes out of this mess unscathed. Lovin me some McBain!!

GH rocks, pissed off about Steve leaving, hope before jason is gone for good he has a reunion with Elizabeth and leaves her pregnant, the storyline that would generate would be awesome, i can picture Sam and Elizabeth coming together for the sake of the baby, and wanting the babies to bond, this time around the baby should be a girl,Gh owes Laison fans this much.

No we don’t need that but let’s see Carly has three kids by three different fathers and oh so does Alexis everyone seems to forget that. It seems every time RH was pregnant in real life they thought they had to write it in.

Now this looks like a quality soap! Still concerned on how Jason will be exited. Will some of us get what we have been waiting for……end of Jason and Sam (baby isn’t his or her’s?) Get some quality s/l of Liz, Jason and Jake being back??!!

I cannot believe how good GH has been lately. The team of Ron and Frank have done it again! Brought me back to GH, in front of the tv, not just leaving it on and going about my business. Whats funny is I had a dream, PC blew up and the survivors all moved to LLandview! lol How awesome. But alas, it was just a dream……

Frank and Ron… you have proven yourselves with OLTL, and again with this wonderful storyline with GH. Thank you guys for your hard work, your talents…Keep it going! We are watching! and ……. you ARE appreciated!

I was excited until I saw that they pretty much made that promo ‘ALL’ about Sonny Corinthos, AGAIN. Seriously must 99.9% of the storylines revolve around or involve Sonny and or Jason? So sick of the mobsters at this point they should just rename the darn soap.

I’ve got to say that I can not for next week to start. I’ve got to say that I do agree with many I really hope McBain does not get hurt. I hope after this him and Sam have the talk and realize that they want to pursue the relationship. I also want my Liasion back before Steve leaves. So I again hope we see Mcbam finally turn into the wonderful couple that they are.

I know. When and where do they show the promo? I don’t watch ABC daytime other than GH and nor do I watch primetime, but I have to see Revenge, 666, and everything else promoted … including that G– awful CHEW!

No not necessarily happy. Happy that Steve Burton has found another venture that makes him happy. My issue isn’t with the characters it’s more so with having all roads lead back to mob ties, meaning Sonny and or Jason. It’s just to the point I’m like enough all ready. There are other awesome characters on this show, let’s give them something that has absolutely nothing at all to do with Sonny Corinthos, Jason Morgan, the mob. Then maybe I’ll start watching more, I only watch now for Todd.

I don’t understand what so many who complain about Sonny expect. It is quite apparent that Sonny is the face of GH now. Yes he gets a lot of screen time, but it is tapering. It takes time for the mob to go away. It’s kind of like pregnancy weight gain – you didn’t put it all on in one day and you can’t expect to lose it all in one day.

They have to clean up the Joe Scully mess which I heard might take several months as he has big plans to takeover Sonny’s territory or something. They need to slowly get Sonny out of the mob and give him a focus on something else. I think it would be good to see him teach boxing at the new ring (kind of like THE WIRE) and that way he could be on a few times a week, but not the majority.

I think the fact that he is sort of on the same side as McBain and his son shows that Sonny is not so much the hated mobster anymore. I see him cooperating more with law enforcement and possibly respected.

That being said, I am just fine with the promo being centered around Sonny because Maurice Benard is a very charismatic man and he gets one’s attention when he is on screen. Sonny has been the face of GH for quite some time now. Maybe if others (vets) had not left it would still be focused on them.

The promo looked so much better than any of the other stunts or effects that the previous regime did in the past. I just think GH is firing on all cylinders right now.

The bottom line is that you will never make 100% of the people happy 100% of the time. People are crying for their beloved One LIfe to Live and All My Children characters. Well what about the Loving/The City, Guiding Light, As the World Turns, Another World, Santa Barbara, Search for Tomorrow, Passions, Port Charles, and anyone else I forgot to mention? Is General Hospital just supposed to dump GH characters in favor of canceled soap characters? This isn’t a list for Santa Claus. Come on people. Just be happy with the turnaround that the new team has made and be happy your show is still on the air. Rejoice when a GH vet or an actor from a canceled show comes on. Stop being so greedy.
